There are some very nice places in Flower Mound. IM if you want more info or have a specific place in mind. Phil Martin

If you are close. Nice. Phil Martin

This specific home is not, but one similar is and this home can be built. IM or call me. 972-768-5664 Phil Martin

That is true. Phil Martin

You can purchase NewConstruction starting in the low $300's. Over priced? Yes some. Most. It's just the new price if you want to live here. Why? There has been a 100,000+ influx of people every year....demand has out paced supply here as it has across the nation. Many older homes have been renovated and many have not....from the 70's-80's. There are homes all over the nation that are that old and older and are well maintained. My home was built in early 90's and it has been completely renovated and just fine. By the way Lady Orion, where do you live now and is there anything in Colllin County that you would like? Tell us which ones. Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you. Phil Martin

Depende de lo que estés buscando en un estilo de vida y calidad de vida específicos. Personalmente prefiero Allen, TX porque es donde vivo. Pero si vives en cualquiera de ellos, estás a sólo 15-20 minutos de todos ellos. Llámame o envíame un mensaje instantáneo. Me gustaría saber más y ser más útil si cree que sería útil. Felipe Martin

Plenty of that as well. More than 1 acre? Call or IM me. Phil Martin

Pat, I love Allen too. Lived here almost 20 years. The mature trees in my neighborhood are simply gorgeous. Thanks for the post. Phil Martin

Jacks, that is usually if you are on a corner, backing to trails/greenbelt or perimeter in a Master Planned Community or in a 1 acre estate community. Just a preference. I'm with you though. Not my cup of tea. Phil Martin

??? Phil Martin

@@LiveNorthofDallasTexas More than one person. I suggest you check with Dallas Observer and Dallas Morning News.

Ken Hutchinson and Judith Glover....what are you selling. Interesting way to advertise. Something to be said about being positive. Have a great day. Phil Martin

Victor. I spent days driving around with new clients moving here from the Houston area. They continually commented that the traffic wasn't that bad. Granted if you hate your work and it is 1 hour drive each way that would be miserable. I know people that love their jobs and that kind of drive is a breeze. On the other hand, I also know folks that live in my neighborhood that think the 3 minute drive to the grocery store is terrible. It all comes down to what you are used to and does you drive time OUTWEIGH the value of having a home where it is and the value that you and your family gets from being there. Tradeoffs! Part of life. Phil Martin

@@LiveNorthofDallasTexas to each their own sir. Was raised up here in little the colony Texas and I’ve witnessed it first hand the mass population growth here and the surrounding cities. It’s ridiculous man I see it everyday.

Thanks Debra. 35 E is probably the best. 35W North of 820 was truly bad when they were building the new sections. Time of day is everything. I actually plan my day around peak travel times and if I have to go through the peak, I make sure my audio book is dialed up. Thanks. Phil Martin.

Quality of life for schools, public education, safety, crime, etc.....put them all together and the average ratings are much lower for Dallas. Period. Especially public school. And the growth in Collin has been so fast...I've been here for most of it...is stupendous compared to just about anywhere. So much fun here too. I appreciate everyones' perspectives.

Kathy, Yes the diversity is great. Frisco has some of the lowest taxes as well. Thank you. Phil Martin

I just talk to someone working at TomThum and he grew up in Collin county last 20 years and he told me that Frisco is like a Cinderella and came from nowhere to become a big city to challenge Dallas!

Sniper....My apologies. YOu are correct. Thanks. Phil Martin

True! I wouldn't try to pay for anything in Bukkohs!

D-Lester LOL. I didn't know Buc-ees was so sensitive. I love em! Thanks. Phil Martin

You sure did add 2 million to its actual population.. Dallas-Fort Worth is NOT 9 million people.. I love how all the idiots in this comment section, act is if they moving to any place in massive numbers will not affect that same place negatively ...

IN March 2024 DFW was estimated at 8.1 million people. Ashley, pretty close. Taipan thanks for chiming in...with all the other idiots (that's a joke) Hang out with them...be just like them. Thanks. Phil Martin

Larry, I'm not paid by Collin County. I make a living helping PEOPLE buy and sell their ideal homes. I live here and happen to really like it here. Phil Martin

OMG. You are correct. It is Pinnacle in Windsong in Prosper, TX. Must've had Frisco on the brain and my editors didn't catch it. Thanks for pointing that out. Phil Martin

OK. Thanks romansmetak9212 Phil Martin

I can't cover everything. But I have helped clients in FlowerMound - great neighbors over in Denton County. Phil Martin

Thanks. Phil Martin

Beverly.....which ones? Phil Martin

They can stay North. Traffic is already becoming worse down this way.

Morgan, Thanks for taking the time to air you opinion. Although not mentioned my team and I routinely help people buy NEW construction homes priced at $270ish and up. It is more expensive in Collin than say....Hunt or Johnson. But those are completely different offerings, lifestyles etc. Not right, not wrong just different. Live where you like! Thanks for the comment. Phil Martin

thanks Kate! I appreciate the comment. Phil Martin

AI Investments (nice name) I beg to differ. I am not behind. Helped families buy in Harvest in Northlake well before you probably new about it - some of the very first Highland Homes and David Weekley's in Denton. I live in Collin where my primary base of business is. It's my favorite. Here's an idea. Start your own RUclips channel about your favorites. Let me know and I can point you in the right direction. Thanks for taking time out of your day to spread positivity. Phil Martin .

@@LiveNorthofDallasTexas Sorry I am not passionate about RUclips or social media. But you haven’t mentioned Arfyle or Northlake hence I posted above. Don’t get me wrong. Thanks

Tell us more Shirley. Phil Martin

That's a matter of opinion. Hated that area. Very unfriendly and unsafe.

@@cheriparisedwards3468 As you say. Matter of opinion.

@@JimMammen and experience.

@@cheriparisedwards3468 Where were you? And what was unsafe?

@@TJ700 in Keller. People were rude and racist. I lived there alone with my pup and taught downtown at the college. So grateful to have gotten out of that environment.

If you prefer Mansfield - amost 45 mins to an hour away...my friend is a Long Time HUGELY successful Realtor in Mansfield specifically. Call or IM and I will get you on the Express Lane to his Team. Phil Martin

Woop woop. Phil Martin

Christine....Pretty far. They are everywhere. IM or call and I can show though. Phil Martin

Correct TL! Thanks. Phil Martin

Krum is probably underrated. If it suits your lifestyle / quality of life goals well worth looking at. Phil Martin

You probably don't have a job in Plano. Sounds like you got great value out there. Get it While You Can! Growth is targeted for the 35W corridor....big growth. Phil Martin

@@LiveNorthofDallasTexas Thankfully I work from home full time!

Marcia Beverly, True! Lots of gentrification still going on, but many nice place. Phil Martin

UnEye....Might be less expensive to buy the house, but Home Owners Insurance can tip the scales the other way for wind/water/hurricane. And the humidity is oppressive...LOL. But have friends that love it, and a client that just moved there this week. THanks for the post. Phil Martin

Depends on where you have to go everyday and at what time. But yep....millions of people here. Thanks. Phil Martin

Judy....can't disagree with anything you posted. My friend and his wife and sister owns the Antique Company on the square in McKinney....love it there too. Glad you have great memories. If you ever want to come back call or IM. I'd love to be helpful. Phil Martin

@@LiveNorthofDallasTexas thank you

I'm glad they made stronger disclosure rules. Actually they have always been required to be disclosed....many - the majority of my colleagues just didn't do it justice. The difference now is, it is big, bold and in your face on everything you sign. Fees are and always have been negotiable. Period. Like any service just ask for lower fees. Get what you pay for. Want to know more about the value my team and I represent when you are buying and selling, just reach out. Once you are aware of our expertise and proven systems and process and track record, then you can negotiate what you feel would match the value. Phil Martin.

Jacks......35E or 35W? IM or Call if you think it would be helpful. Phil Martin

Thanks for checking in. Phil Martin

I agree with you, it’s going to be the same as Dallas pretty soon with high prices, kind of sounds like he downplayed these cities a lot

Pearls.....Thanks for checking in. Like you, I am allowed to have an opinion and I think they are the 7 best. Of course, we help people find and purchase their ideal home wherever it is in the area. Phil Martin

Arlene, there are plans to complete an outerloop connecting the East to the North and West. Between planes, trains and automobiles who knows what it will look like in 20 years. Phil Martin

Waxahachie is exploding with growth. Careful. Phil Martin

Absolutely! A great community. Phil Martin

Grandscape is nice but I avoid it in the weekends! Over crowded and parking is a pain!

Jeff....LOVE me some grandscape. Just listed and sold a beautiful home in The Tribute. The Colony is only 18 minutes from Allen and Grandscape in about 3 minutes from Legacy West, Shops at Legacy NOrth and South....so much fun. Andretti's and Hard Eights are my favorite.
